Pass Me The Thatcher Tape

You Say 'Assume'
And What It Makes Us Both,
I Stifled Whatever You Said With Lips

I Root Through Bins During State Funerals
Strewing Empty Bags Around Campus,
Stop. I Can Only Play Love Through VCR

Let Me Unmute Your New Ex's Passion
I Am A Jabroni Not An Ass
Like You Assumed

Easter Island Heads And Where Is Mesopotamia?

Crane Arms Cross And Jesus Walks
Into A Pub, And Manhole Covers
With 'Near God' Written On Them.

Virgin Doors Only And Heat
Off Buses And The Damp
Of Bubble Makers And I...

A Cancer That Never Reared Its Head
Because I Tapped Wood After Its Name.
The Scariest Thing Is That I Would Keep On Living

And All The Other Things Left In The Attic
You Can Wait For Me To Pass
Living Weeks Until Somebody Enters The Room

A Warmth In My Hand
A Duck's Breast That My Father Shot
And Handed To Me

Quarry

Myxomatosis And A Tyre Track
Noticing Every Tennis Ball In Every Hedge
A Soft Lump And Freshly Cut Grass Is All I Smell

Moon

Fuck The Curvature Of The Earth
I Landed Without Any Dust In My Boots

There Was A Parade Because
I Didn't Squish You Between My Fingers
